Which three qualities of the team did the Prime Minister highlight in his message?
- A.Discipline, fitness and patience
- B.Confidence, consistency and remarkable spirit
- C.Courage, teamwork and planning
- D.Experience, aggression and skill
Correct answer
B. Confidence, consistency and remarkable spirit
Explanation
The correct answer is confidence, consistency and remarkable spirit. The Prime Minister named exactly these three, and he added that they were on full display not in one match but throughout the tournament, which is why the phrase is worth memorising as a set. Option A is wrong because discipline, fitness and patience are qualities commonly praised in sporting messages but were not the words used here. Option C is wrong on the same ground, since neither courage nor planning appears in this message. Option D is wrong because experience, aggression and skill are again plausible sounding but absent from the release. Questions of this kind test close reading rather than general knowledge, and the safest approach is to remember the exact triple. The Prime Minister then went on to express the hope that the win would inspire millions of youngsters across the country to play more and to shine.

Practice Questions
Which Indian team did Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulate on 14 September 2026 for winning the Asia Cup?
- A.The Men's Cricket Team
- B.The Women's Cricket Team
- C.The Junior Men's Hockey Team
- D.The Women's Kabaddi Team
Show answer
Correct answer: B. The Women's Cricket Team
Explanation
The correct answer is the Women's Cricket Team. The Prime Minister congratulated the Indian Women's Cricket Team on winning the Asia Cup and opened his message by calling the result a proud moment for Indian cricket. Option A is the trap here, because a men's tournament of the same name is played as well and candidates who register only the words Asia Cup and cricket often pick the wrong side; the release names the women's team specifically. Option C is wrong because it belongs to a different sport, and the Asia Cup in question here was a cricket competition. Option D is wrong for the same reason, since kabaddi does not figure in this release at all. A dependable habit in current affairs is to fix three things together for every sporting result: the sport, whether the men's or the women's team won it, and the exact date on which the message or the result was recorded.
How did the Prime Minister convey his congratulations to the Asia Cup winning team?
- A.Through a post on X
- B.In an address to Parliament
- C.At a felicitation ceremony in New Delhi
- D.In a letter to the team captain
Show answer
Correct answer: A. Through a post on X
Explanation
The correct answer is through a post on X. The Prime Minister put out his message on that platform on 14 September 2026, and the Prime Minister's Office issued the same text as a press release on the same day. Option B is wrong because no address to Parliament was involved, and the release describes a social media post rather than a speech. Option C is wrong because no felicitation ceremony is mentioned; the message went out on the day itself rather than at a later event. Option D is wrong because the congratulation was addressed to the team as a whole and was not described as a letter to any individual. This detail is worth noting because a good many congratulatory messages from the Prime Minister now reach the public first through such posts, and examiners sometimes ask about the medium rather than the content of the message.
Which body organised the World Archery Para Series inaugurated on 4 September 2026?
- A.Sports Authority of India
- B.Paralympic Committee of India
- C.Archery Association of India
- D.Indian Olympic Association
Show answer
Correct answer: C. Archery Association of India
Explanation
The correct answer is the Archery Association of India. The release states plainly that the Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation inaugurated the Archery Association of India's World Archery Para Series through video conferencing. Option B, the Paralympic Committee of India, is the strongest distractor, because the event is a para sporting competition and a student reasoning from the word para rather than from the release will reach for it. Option A, the Sports Authority of India, is the government body that runs training infrastructure and schemes, not the organiser named here. Option D, the Indian Olympic Association, is the national Olympic body and again is not the organiser of this series. Note the other details in the same sentence, since they often form the rest of the question: the mode of inauguration was video conferencing, the dates are 5 to 9 September 2026, and the host city is Ahmedabad. The Home Minister also named Harvinder Singh, Sheetal Devi, Rakesh Kumar, Shyam Sundar Sami and Payal Nag as archers who have brought India glory.
How many athletes are taking part in the World Archery Para Series inaugurated by Amit Shah?
- A.88 athletes from 15 countries
- B.108 athletes from 19 countries
- C.120 athletes from 19 countries
- D.108 athletes from 29 countries
Show answer
Correct answer: B. 108 athletes from 19 countries
Explanation
The correct answer is 108 athletes from 19 countries. The release records that the Union Home Minister extended his best wishes to the 108 athletes from 19 countries participating in the World Archery Para Series, and that the participating nations include Bhutan, the United Kingdom, China, Bangladesh, France, Germany, Indonesia and the United States. Option A changes both numbers and is the easiest to reject once the correct pair is remembered. Option C keeps the country count right but rounds the athlete count up, which is the most common way a wrong figure enters a student's memory. Option D keeps the athlete count right but inflates the country count, and it is the trap for anyone who half remembers the two numbers but not which is which. The habit worth building here is to store the two figures as a single phrase, in the order the release gives them: one hundred and eight athletes, nineteen countries. The event is organised by the Archery Association of India and runs from 5 to 9 September 2026.
Which city is to host the centenary edition of the Commonwealth Games in 2030?
- A.New Delhi
- B.Mumbai
- C.Ahmedabad
- D.Bhubaneswar
Show answer
Correct answer: C. Ahmedabad
Explanation
The correct answer is Ahmedabad. Speaking at the inauguration, the Union Home Minister said that the 2030 Commonwealth Games will mark the centenary edition of those Games, and that it is a matter of great joy that Ahmedabad will host the event. He went on to say that Ahmedabad has also submitted its bid to host the 2036 Olympic Games and expressed confidence that those Games too would come to the city. Option A, New Delhi, hosted the Commonwealth Games in India once before, which makes it the most natural wrong answer for anyone recalling an older edition rather than this one. Option B, Mumbai, and option D, Bhubaneswar, are cities associated with major sporting events in India but neither is named in this release. Keep the two years apart in memory by their meaning: 2030 is the centenary edition already awarded, while 2036 is the Olympic bid still to be decided. Gujarat hosted around ten international sporting events between 2025 and 2026.
